1. Preheat oven to 350 (this works great in a toaster oven too if you have one).
2. Gather: 2 1/4" metal heart shaped cookie cutter and a baking sheet.
3. Unwrap candies and place them inside the cookie cutter.
4. Bake in oven until mints BEGIN to melt (about 4-5 minutes).
5. Let cool enough within the cookie cutter before popping the treat out so it keeps it's form.
